About American Made Cutting Boards

Buying guides for American-made cutting boards: how to check a Made in USA claim, what good wood and construction look like, and which board fits your kitchen.

Who publishes this

American Made Cutting Boards is published by Bevel & Bond LLC, a small American company whose end-grain hard maple cutting boards are made in Oregon. We started this site because we kept answering the same questions by email and wanted somewhere to put the answers properly.

Our relationship to the products we mention

We sell cutting boards, and we sometimes link to our own. That is a commercial interest and you should read our recommendations knowing it.

What we try to do in return is be straight about tradeoffs, including where a cheaper board, a different wood, or a different construction is the better buy for you. Where our own products come up, we say plainly when they are the wrong choice, because a guide that never does that is an advert.

How we write these guides

Specifications come from published sources, Janka hardness figures, manufacturer documentation, food-safety research. Where we state something from our own workshop experience, we say so. We do not invent test results, review scores, or credentials.
